The toughest post-war FB set to complete is without a doubt the LARGE card version of the 1952 Bowman set. |

A great set indeed...since you already posted Tittle (my personal favorite from the set) I'll post my second favorite - Yale Lary's rookie in his Aggies uniform. |

The very first collection I ever bought, which goes back to about 1983, included many early 1950's Bowman and Topps cards, including a near Set of 1952 Large. I auctioned off the cards in groups and I remember the endless streams of calls and letters I got asking me to sell card #144 directly. It had no premium in the catalog, so at first I was surprised. But it was my first lesson about rare cards within a set. Of course, #144 Lansford today is a bit of a modern classic. |

I've always wondered why the Bowman Small are valued less when they are in shorter supply. |

The first time I looked at Ted's sheet something bothered me, but I couldn't figure out what. But now it dawned on me. Why are Spencer and Cone on the same sheet? Spencer is supposed to be a short print, but Cone isn't. Were the sheet combinations changed throughout the printing run? |

I've gotta say that those Bowman football issues from 1950-55 are some of the nicest looking cards ever made. Those sets are absolutely beautiful! |

Absolutely, the toghest FB card has to be the Jim Lansford (#144) from the 1952 Bowman (large issue). |

Great looking set but my favorites are still the 50-51 sets. Favorite card from the set would be the Tittle. |

I love the 1952 Bowman (large) set as well--particulary the Lansford card. I have the small Lansford and I'd have to say that either the large or small of this card is not easy to find despite the gap in prices. |

Good question--and since 100% of my set is original purchase cards by me alone & stored all these yrs maybe my answer will be useful & insightful as to the make-up of this wonderful set. |

I grew up in the late '40's--early 50's in Western New York---in the shadows of the Attica State Prison! (Which by the way, is not far from Buffalo & the Canadian border!) |

Now that I have mentioned about all the miscuts I have I thought I would keep the thread going by picturing some of my nice Stars & some of the tough Rookie SP's. A couple of them were top POP's when I had them done last yr, but I don't know about now. |

Like I said, your "divisible by 9" cards are about the best I've ever seen. Now, I'm curious how nice your....divisible by 9 + 1....cards are ? |

I have had no problem getting psa 8s in the 9 plus 1s. The multiples of 9 are a bear however. |
